For this recipe use a shiny nine inch spring form pan. Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. Mix the crust which includes two cups chocolate cookie crumbs and six tablespoons butter in a small bowl. Empty the bowl into a spring form pan that has been sprayed with a non stick product. Using your hands mold the mixture into the bottom of the pan and up the sides. Don't worry the crust doesn't have to look perfect. It will still be beautiful and taste great.

Place fourteen ounces kraft caramels into a microwave bowl. Add one half cup milk. Microwave on high for at least three minutes or until mixture is melted. Be sure to check every minute and stir. Add one cup chopped pecans. Pour half of this mixture onto the already prepared crust. Put into the refridgerator for fifteen minutes. Also put the remaining caramel mixture into the refridgerator.

Beat three eight ounce softened cream cheese until it is light and fluffy. Add three fourths cup of sugar and beat until completely incorporated. Add one tablespoon vanilla and beat again until incorporated. Add three eggs one at a time until each is completely blended. Pour this mixture onto the aleady cool crust.

Put a pan full of water on the shelf under the cheesecake. This will make sure that the cheesecake is moist. Put the cheesecake in the oven for one hour or until the center is almost set. When the cheesecake is done, put it on the counter for at least an hour and then refridgerate. After the cheesecake has cooled slightly, about fifteen minutes, use a sharp knife and loosen cake from the spring form top. The cheesecake should be completely cool before removing the springform top. Cool overnight.

Microwave the remaining caramel mixture on high for one minute. Stir the mixture to make sure that it is melted. Pour this mixture over the cooled cheesecake. Melt one half a bag of mik chocolate chips in the microwave for about a minute. Stir to make sure the morsels are melted. Using a spoon drizzle the chocolate mixture over the cheesecake.

Cool the cheesecake again until the chocolate and caramel is cooled. Now it's time to eat. Enjoy one of the most luscious cheesecake you have ever had. Your friends will think you bought it at a high end bakery. Be ready to hand out recipes.
